Frequently Asked Questions about the SAT

The SAT is used by the admission boards to predict how well a student will perform in college. If you are seeking admission into a certain program, such as the school of journalism, your critical reading and writing skills sections will probably be more heavily scrutinized than your math score.

The SAT is comprised of three sections with each section being out of 800 points. A good score is relative to the college you hope to go to. For reference, here is a list of certain colleges with their average required SAT score need to gain admittance.

The SAT is administered by The College Board. You can register for the test online at www.collegeboard.org. or you can register by mail by obtaining a copy of the SAT Paper Registration Guide usually found in your college guidance counselor’s office. Registering for the SAT costs $50.00 with a $27.00 late fee if you register after the deadline.
